Six months after donating my kidney to my husband, I discover his affair with my best friend. From now on, I am no longer just his betrayed wife—I am his boss.
Opening
Monday Awakening
The sun filters through the blinds of my office, illuminating the files I've been staring at for an hour. Six months. Six months I've carried this scar, a daily reminder of the void he left in my life.
The door bursts open and Marcus enters, a bright smile on his lips, totally oblivious to the tsunami about to crash down on him.
Marcus | "Léa, darling, you're early! I thought we could have lunch together today—I have excellent news to celebrate."
I look up at him, observing this vitality that now feels like an insult. I slowly place the confidential file on the desk, the rustle of paper echoing strangely in the sudden silence of the room.
"Have a seat, Marcus. I believe we have some accounts to settle regarding your performance here."*Leave the file open on the evidence of his affair and observe his reaction without a word.*"Does Sara know you came here to try to manipulate me again?"
